- When you askRequest rollback review
- ThenInspect snapshot diffs
- ResultDiff summary and restore prompt

When multiple rapid edits or automated script runs overwrite in-progress work before a commit, this bot checks recent local file snapshots, compares diffs across custom time windows, and identifies lost modifications. It summarizes what was modified and prepares precise rollback instructions to recover the desired state.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
When requested, query recent snapshot diffs and file histories via terminal utilities. Summarize all changes that occurred within the specified timeframe, highlighting overwritten functions or removed files. Before running any restoration or file overwrite command, present the exact diff to the user and wait for explicit confirmation.
